grab one of the many knives in my room, go out the window, run around to the parents window, see if there still alive, help them out if they are, grab the keys to both cars, drive to my dads, steal his guns, get my brother, try to band with other survivors

There are two doors that they'd have to get through to get to me at this point. The main door to the house, then the door at the top of the stairs into our apartment. Since Zeke's ability to go through doors is limited to force rather than the use of doorknobs, I'd have ample warning as they try to breech the first entryway. Unfortunately for them, I am awake at this hour. Upon hearing their entrance to the building, I'd get my 12ga from the next room and plant myself at the top of the stairs with that and the box of 7 1/2 shells. That position is pretty defensible for the time being, but this apartment isn't the ideal long term position, especially considering that I'm just outside one of the biggest cities in NY, and aside from the shotgun and the single box of shells, I don't have much here in the way of defensive weaponry (No need for it here) We make our way to the car which has a little over a quarter of a tank of gas in it, enough to get me back to my hometown where my parents and weapon/ammo cache is. Our route will be direct, down the Thruway, which will be sparsely populated at this hour of the night, with little risk of running into many other drivers. The rural area we're heading to has several advantages at this point. 1. The area is on a dead end road, one way in, one way out. 2. The area has been hit with about 5' of snow. Vehicles can be turned sideways to create a barricade between the snow banks. 3. Wood stove with plenty of store in case electricity and other utilities become cut off. 4. Two story house allows for us to be able to shoot Zeke easily as he starts foundering in the snow, and since the population is really low, Zeke's numbers won't be overwhelming, and my brother will probably make his way there as well- he's the designated marksman for his unit in the national guard, my father taught HIM (and I) how to shoot, and I generally hit what I'm aiming at. Between the three of us I think we can stave off an assault while the women make sammiches and take care of the baby. I think we can hold out for a bit. ------------- ? |

I'm on the 17th story of a control tower. If the zombies are coming in through the windows we are all *naughty worded* anyway cos they can fly.
Downstairs to the fire station, into one of their 8 x 8 fire trucks, off to fetch the wife and kids, load up the rifles and off to a farm. So glad the airport isn't a national key point any more and they don't take my pistol off me any more. |

grab the 12G from under the bed, grab ammo from where its stored. fight off any zombie thats gotten into my house. proceed to fall back to houses of friends whose dad's i know have ammo for 12G or some sort of arsenal. fall back to a position where the zombies cannot go. get a boat, few meals go to middle of lake ronkonkoma wait about a week for it all to blow over go to nearest 7 11 get supplies and continue to fight on from where i am at that point blow away zombies on site, keep one round in reserve in case my position is overrun |

Nope, sorry, you are now dead. Or zombied. The idea is along the lines of "pop quiz hotshot, what do you do, what do you do?". You don't get to plan the perfect strategy, you have to do it on the fly right now, the zombies are already {Aaaarg!} |

Considering i have a fireproof, very heavy door leading into my 7th floor dorm, the zombies would need a battering ram to get in here. That means that Zeke is very evolved and I have no choice. I attempt to climb out the bottom-hinged window and wait for help or leap to my non-zombie death. -------------

I'm stuck in a dorm full of people. The doors are fairly strong and should hold out against the strength of any group of people that try to get in... dead or alive. Before I continue, it's important to note that I'm on a college campus at 9 AM. It is highly unlikely that there are more than a few zombies roaming through any one of the dorms at any one time, and that all the commotion they make would still not be enough to wake any of the students around. In that case, there wouldn't be any reason that a zombie should be at my door. I would likely learn of the invasion by reading my morning news. I'll barricade the main door of the dorm and hold out on the food that we have in the refrigerator. Chances are, the I would fashion a spear/club/battle axe from the pull-up bar in my room. Before I ventured outdoors, I would wrap a shemagh around my head (most importantly mouth and ears) for protection from blood spatter. I would also wear one of the pairs of lab goggles I have in here (my paintball masks are in the car). I would don my jacket, jeans, boots, and my paintball gloves. Furthermore, I would take all the latex gloves I have stored in my dorm (used to help with the school EMS service) and spread them out among my pockets wearing one pair under my gloves. I would then make a door opening device out of a wire hanger. You can open the doors here by sliding a hooked wire under a door, turning it up toward the handle on the opposite side, and pulling down. I would keep this in my dorm in case I have to retreat and come up with an alternate plan of action, which would involve barricading my entire floor and clearing the rooms of zombies. Back to the original plan: I have a few objectives I need to complete to GTFO of here. 1) Roommates: They may slow me down, but they will be useful. Among the 4 of us, there are 3 cars, a ton of food, and two of us could take down damn near any sized person with ease. 2) Belongings: I've got a dorm full of crap that I can use to help me out. Plenty of bags to carry stuff, all sorts of useful items like flashlights, tools, a skydiving helmet, various goggles and glasses, batteries, knives, non-perishable foods, a walkie talkie, etc. I would also take with me my hard drives and my camera and some nostalgic items before I vacated the room. 3) Car: It's currently loaded with my stuff left over from the paintball game I went to last weekend. In there I've got water, basic camping supplies, tools, and a few things one would bring to a scenario game. Also, while it would attract attention, it is probably the safest way for me to traverse the campus. It's also very close to one of the dorm exits. The two roommates who also have cars could get theirs. 4) Medical supplies: We have a basic EMS service here. That service has a 2x4 Gator that should currently be loaded with a BLS bag. If the guys on duty haven't escaped, I would grab one of those. 5) Aircraft: Yes, you get it , I fly... but it is the only way to get out of Daytona from where I am. All the roads that surround campus are super busy at nearly all times of day. If there are any airplanes available, I would see to it that I got my hands on two of them. The flight line is no more than 100 yards away from the dorm. I would have to hop behind the flight desk and steal a bunch of clipboards. I have a couple options on places to fly but I would have to get there quick as crappy weather is soon to hit us. There is an abandoned grass strip on an island in a lake about 15 minutes inland that I could definitely land a plane on. The planes at our school are usually gassed up and ready to go, and if there isn't enough fuel, there are plenty of airports in the middle of low population areas that I could perhaps have the time to fill up my tanks on. Heck, if our fuel truck is still on the ramp, I could grab that. There is one huge concern I have with this plan, and that is the 3 people I have with me. I'm not one to leave anyone behind, and the planes cannot handle 4 people with any useful amount of fuel and supplies. Luckily (or maybe not), there will be other pilots on the flight line that would be calm enough to coordinate our plan. Our best bet would be to the Kennedy Space Center, where it is unlikely that any Z would be around regardless of how bad the invasion is. There will also be a ton of aircraft and likely their pilots around, which would make our escape to the Bahamas much easier. On the other hand, we could get government support, though the quality of that depends on how interested the commanders have been with zombie movies. -------------

I'm having a bad day (back issues) so I would make my way out the window but let one zombie bite me. I would then go to the nearby house of an ex-supervisor I couldn't stand, slip in through the basement window and fix the door leading upstairs* so it can't be secured. After that I would hide and wait to turn. *Assuming there is one. -------------

| Hear them trying to bust through the door wake up my brother both grab our 12gages and since we live out further in the country not many zekes will be coming, wake my dad and he gets his pump 30-06 and we fight our way to viehicles and drive to the hunting cottage, wich is in the middle on no where get the rest of our weapons from there and hold out for 3 weeks. Next load up and drive into the nearest town and head to the closest grocery store and loot it for suplies then find the nearest sporting goods shop and loot that for any left over guns and go back and wait out the winter hunting for food. and hoping the all the zekes will have frozen to death. |

I play both. If that's in reference to my Xbox live profile thing, it's a joke about something a friend said one night. He was all "Hey, you should get really good on guitar so you can play the halo theme" and I just laughed. One of my other friends said "Dude, he plays guitar, that's why his Gamertag is ThatGuitarGuy" and friend one said he thought I only played bass. So, I added that thing into my GT profile. I can't wake her up to go out with a bang, she doesn't like that first thing when she wakes up. Generally, firecrackers aren't a good way to wake someone up. (get it, bang?) Actually, I reconnoitered the room. I think I could jump from her 2nd floor window to the bed of my truck. Assuming there's not a mass of zeds outside, I could get to my pistol. Problem is, I have to get her and a 18 month old out too. ------------- Skillet: I've never been terribly fond of the look of a vagina |

Guitarguy wins, he has the redhead. (which is now official, grats).
Im in my dorm room, alone with the door locked. I would probably wait in my dorm room and live here for a few days. If my rents show up before the infection got bad I would jump out of my 2nd floor window and book it to the truck.
If they didnt show up, rather than pull out a 12ga like everyone else and go rambo, I would wait in my dorm room for a few weeks until I starve and die, or I would fight a handful of zombies (I have a beating stick in my room) until i found somewhere safe or died.
TLDR, die, or get lucky and live. Then die soon after anyway. -------------

Well, here we go. I load up what guns/small amount of supplies into the Cayenne S that I'm driving right now while my car is in the shop. I'd let my family know where I'm headed so that they could make their way to the coast ahead of me, Mom has a Yukon XL, and hopefully they'd empty out the pantry and garage of usefull stuff. I'd call the buddies I know I can trust to be helpful in a Z-Day scenario and start co-ordinating how to rendezvous with everyone. The guys close to me are on the way I'd head out anyways, and I know they're prepared for just such a situation, so it'd be worth the effort to make contact with them. The friends that are a little farther away would be even more usefully, but because of their location, we'd probably have to meet up with them down the road. I'd swing out to one of the ultra rural gas stations in my country to load up on gasoline and have my friends get what essentials we could grab there. No reason to go to a grocery store, they're bound to be trouble whether they are full of Zekes OR survivors fighting over supplies. With me and my friends in our fueled up vehicles, we'd make for the coast. I think we'd probably stick to the main interstates, even though they're likely to have more people. Interstates typically have much more room on the shoulders than highways, so if we needed to keep rolling at a high rate of speed, it'd be less likely for the need for a complete stop to move wreckage. Highway travel brings up some interesting things we'd have to look at, maybe have a couple guys in thebacks of the two pickups with rifles for heavier protection in case any Z gets too froggy. My friend has a place on the intercoastal waterway, and his boat is either already in the water, or easily put in. It's about 15-20 minutes outside of a big city, so hopefully it would be far enough to give us lighter resistance. Once we've waited an acceptable time for those we expect to show up, it'd be decision time. His house is relatively isolated, with water around about 3/5ths of it, but the downstairs has a lot of windows. I think we'd secure the house as best we could to give stragglers an extra day(hopefully?). The house's cupula would make an awesome snipers nest to keep a round-the-clock watch from. We could easily hole up on the second floor, as there is only one staircase to the 2nd, and exit would probably be decently easy from one of the second floor porches if we had to make a run for it, but it seems risky. Best thing to do would probably start loading up the boat, and maybe the neighbor's boats if they aren't there and heading out through the waterway to an island we go and hang out on about a mile off shore. Besides water, I don't see any reason we couldn't stare there for absolutely as long as we needed to. Fishing alone off the island is GREAT, and it's a bird sanctuary too, so we could have scrambled eggs in the mornings. Of course, if the zombies are some freak, walk on the bottom of the ocean vareity, the whole earth is screwed anyways, and the only chance we'd have is to hole up in a nuke shelter for decades and hope some government makes a crazy last ditch effort as they're over run. ------------- Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo |

Grab 870 Wingmaster off the wall 5 ft to left, and let the three 00 rounds fly. next move 8 ft to right to gun safe and grab PS90, slap on 50 round mag and continue shooting. If I run out there, Grab 40 cal glock off of desk and empty that.....Then grab Kimber out of gunsafe and load from one of 2 loaded mags on top of safe and start shooting. After house is quiet once again, grab guns and duty belt and all ammo from basement and food ffrom kitchen. Drive to GOMEZ and taze him while he is "brake dancing like a white boy."
